  1. That's really sad. And sort of unfair to the family of the man, I'm sure they probably want justice, and rightfully deserve it.

  2. If he defended the skateboarders as said, was he a skateboarder also, or just someone there at the moment? If so he was a bystander, he should've minded his own business for he had nothing to argue over, and nothing would have happened. Specialy the Accusant, that he should've never taken out a gun in the first place because now he has to face a permanent mind scar to know that his gun murdered a person over nothing serious and that he left a growing family without a father.
